it has probably something to do with the tumbnailer since removing the video file "home/niek/Bureaublad/OLDCODEX%20-%20Rage%20on%20-%20Letra%20espa%C3%B1ol.mp4'" resolves the issue.

The bug didn't get activity/new duplicates for some years and the nautilus code saw quite some changes since which probably deprecated the issue so closing it. If it's still a problem in recent Ubuntu/nautilus version please submit a new report
